Poison God's Heritage

"Very sturdy," I noted.

Since these cubes were hardened thanks to Qi, I couldn\'t inscribe anything on them, since I needed to carve the inscription using my tools. So I waited until the Qi inside the ring was fully exhausted and the link between the cubes relaxed and they detached themselves but still remained in wheel shape.

With the basic framework done, and the wheel relaxed, I began copying the spatial displacement formation from the cauldron onto the inside of the wheel.

It took me a few hours to get everything written down, and since the formation was missing a small bit from the crack and caused leakage, I improvised. Adding a few more inscriptions which I deduced were capable of transferring Qi from one side to another.

Basically, I stemmed the bleeding where the Qi was leaking from the missing part.

Although I don\'t know if this stem will work or not, all I can guarantee is that it won\'t cause me to use an insane amount of Qi to activate the formation.

With everything finalized. I added my Qi to the wheel, and then enabled the shrinking formation, half expecting the entire thing to blow up in my face, so I backed away and used my Qi as a protective barrier.

However, nothing of the sort happened. In fact, the entire wheel-sized metallic object shrunk until it was the size of a ring. It was pretty sturdy too and didn\'t bend.

But it can\'t stay like this forever, I didn\'t give it enough energy to remain in this form forever. So it will soon grow back to its former size.

I continued testing how long the ring would remain in its form and how much Qi it would take for it to exhaust itself and came up with an estimate. The ring needs about the same energy as a fingertip\'s worth of heavenly Qi, not saint Qi, to change its form. Which was an incredibly low amount.

Once it exhausts it, it returns to its basic form.

No wonder the cauldron is always in its smaller size, since it was probably used by a Sun, it absorbed more energy than it needs to remain in its shape for an eternity.

As for the displacement function. I had to wear the ring for it to be in direct contact with my body.

Then ring, as if alive dug deep into my finger. I could feel it too. The several parts of the ring-shaped themselves into needles that dug into my flesh and connected themselves to my blood vessels.

I didn\'t expect this and just as I was about to force the ring out, it lit up with Qi. I felt a bit lightheaded, not enough to cause one to worry but I noticed that I lost a sliver of my mental strength.

My eyes fell on the cauldron which was wobbling for some reason. And almost immediately I found myself on top of the table. Confused at first, I looked back, and the cauldron which was on top of the table was actually back on the ground where I was standing a second earlier.

Surprised by the function of the ring, I tried it again and again and realized that I could use this about ten times before the strain became too much for my head and I needed to rest. Not take pills but to actually rest.

Sadly the position exchange only applied to myself, and I couldn\'t swap two different things in the distance for example, and the limitation was not that far which isn\'t pretty good, since I might need to use this to change position with something far away in a pinch.

I went to grab the cauldron, and the moment my hand touched the cauldron as if the metallic pot was alive, it melted, changing into a viscous substance.

Soon the entire cauldron began fusing itself into the ring. An interesting phenomenon. Something I didn\'t expect, and something that could be dangerous.

I even half expected that I\'d have to cut my hand off, but there was no malicious or dangerous feeling as the entire cauldron fully fused into the ring, growing the ring\'s size by a decent margin.

"Seems that the cauldron had the ability to repair itself… Quite interesting."

And thanks to the fusion of the cauldron and the ring, I felt the strain that I needed to use the ring drop by an incredible margin.

However, I couldn\'t fully test out the extent of this discovery here in the lab.

I walked back out of the lab and asked Law to follow me.

"Where are we going?" Law asked.

"To do something fun," I said as the both of us got out of the ship.

Far in the distance, the arm of the dead cultivator was still there. But there was no way for any of us to get there without getting absolutely fried by the constant lightning.

"Check this out," I said to Law and instantly I disappeared from right next to him while a small stalk of herbs appeared in the air where I was.

I appeared right next to the hand on the ground, and the moment I did so, I felt the hair on my back rise up, I was apparently the new target of the incoming lightning bolt.

I quickly grabbed the arm from the ground and used the ring once again, changing my position back using the very same stalk I used the first time.

The lightning bolt which was coming down at me however failed completely to hit me and struck the ground pointlessly.

"What the hell was that!" Law shouted as he couldn\'t understand how I disappeared and appeared at the same time from so far away.

I smiled at Law\'s shocked face. Well, I never thought the cost of using this thing would be so minimal after the cauldron fused into the ring. Now, I can probably use this to exchange position with anything within my divine sense range. The smaller the distance the more insignificant the cost. Though even at maximum distance I can use it about a dozen or so times before I begin feeling the strain.

This is pretty amazing.
